Caridina sp. "Orange Delight"

Caridina sp. "Orange Delight"

Overview

The Orange Delight Shrimp is another species from Sulawesi, Indonesia. Its size and behavior is comparable to the
Brown Camo Shrimp
. It is not the most popular of the Sulawesi species but it does have its own style. Its pattern of colors is similar to some other species of Sulawesi Shrimp but the coloration is of its own. The Orange Delight Shrimp is not a beginner's species and only experienced hobbyists should attempt to keep it.

Background

The Orange Delight Shrimp is from Sulawesi, Indonesia. Sulawesi is one of the islands encompassing the country of Indonesia. It is caught in one of several lakes in Sulawesi. I highly suggest that you read the article
Sulawesi Expedition
for detailed information on Sulawesi as well as more information on is habitat. There are underwater photos of the lake system and photos of the landscape as well.

Water Parameters

As with all Sulawesi Shrimp it is highly recommended that you keep the Orange Delight Shrimp in a temperature of at least 78F. Anything lower can kill this species. It is also recommended that you keep this species in a tank with hard water and a ph of no less than 7.0. I keep the Orange Delight Shrimp in a tank with a pH of 7.0 and temperature of 84F. My tank parameters are the same for all of my Sulawesi Shrimp.

Due to its small size you can keep the Orange Delight Shrimp in a smaller tank. I recommend a tank of at least 10 gallons. I would keep no more than 25 Orange Delight Shrimp per 10 gallons of water. Even though it is a smaller species, overcrowding can stress this shrimp.

Breeding

The Orange Delight Shrimp breeding is done in complete freshwater, no salt or brackish water is required. The adult females carry the eggs until they hatch, producing miniature shrimp. The females carry roughly 10-15 eggs. It takes approximately 20-30 days for the eggs to hatch. Upon hatching you may not see the babies for a few days while they hide. Eventually they will appear.

The babies of the Orange Delight Shrimp will not show much similarities in coloration to the parents. It will take at least a week before you can truly identify the baby as coming from this species. Due to the baby's small size it is not large enough to show the coloration or pattern as the adults do. For more information on the reproduction cycle of freshwater aquarium shrimp please read the article

. Below is a photo of Orange Delight Shrimp eggs. Notice the tiny black "eyes" of the developing babies inside of the eggs.

So before you trade in your favorite dark chocolate bar, you’ll want to know what cacao nibs taste like.

Cacaonibshave a pleasant, slightly sweet nutty taste.

They arecrunchy but not rockhard.

Their texture can be compared tosoft nuts like cashews or macadamia nuts.

Theyaren’t as bitter as you might expect.

In fact, good ones are a lot less bitter than good quality dark chocolate.

If cacao nibs are a new food to you, there are a few things you need to know before you start using them.

There’s a lot of confusion as to whether you should eat your cacao nibs roasted or raw.

Raw nibs are popular among raw foodenthusiasts, but unfortunately a lot of companies that sell raw nibs make some ratherwild, unsubstantiated health claims about the benefits of cacao nibs.

Chocolate connoisseurs point out that roasting brings out the nuttiness and removes certain astringent compounds that can give rawcacao nibs a sour taste.

Which you chooseis a matter of personal preference.

Keep in mind that not all cacao nibs are of equal quality.

Just as the taste and quality of that other wildly popular tropical bean, coffee, varies wildly, so doesthe taste and quality of cacao nibs.
